Morning Minute for September 13th

Thank you for your presence at our Open House. Whew the line for 6th grade schedules got long. I really appreciate the WEB students stepping in to support handing them out! Also, kudos to Conni for getting our nametags/plates with ALL the things on them. Thank you staff. I hope it was a positive experience for you all. I know it makes for a long night. 

  • If you read this when it comes out or before you leave your house in the morning please feel free to arrive at work at 8:30 tomorrow. Grab a coffee and ease on in. You deserve it. 
  • If you were Medication Trained through MESD last year, make sure you renew it online soon. This training needs to be completed before your 1 year expiration date. 

    - Google MESD Online Training - This will take you directly to the login page. 

  • Heads up that next week the Counselors Ruth Howard and Michelle McMillan, as well as our School Social Worker Lindsay Alex, will be going into Science classrooms on Tuesday/Thursday in Science classes. 
  • We spoke about Advisory Partners during our staff meetings. Please find a time to connect before the end of this week or early next week. Again, we expect all staff members with an Advisory, or serving as a partner to review slides in advance to anticipate where extra support is needed. We will be asking for our first check-ins to take place starting next week. More information to follow.
I am sure there is more I am forgetting but it is 8:10 and I am headed home. It can wait until tomorrow!

Nightly News for Wednesday the 9th

Tomorrow is what may be our last Apple Harvest. This event begins at 5:00 and runs until 7:00. Valerie, Elin and Ron have spent time organizing and we are hoping for a great turn out. All staff are welcome to come and support!  We are looking for a paper cutter. Daniela currently has one in the art room that is hardly functioning. It needs to be retired. I am reaching out in hopes of finding one in the building that is stuffed in a closet or drawer somewhere and could be given to our art room for daily use before  we purchase a new one. Please let her, or me know if you have one you are willing to part with.  Just an FYI I was in meetings pretty much all day. I am behind in responding to emails and will work on this tomorrow as I can and over the weekend.

Please note that Shannon, or I,  cannot use the P-Card to make purchases on anyone's personal accounts. For example if you wanted to order something from Home Depot we could not have you send us your link and pay for it using the P-Card. All purchases have to be made on a Harrison Parks specific account OR the employee can pay for it and be reimbursed .   MS Arts Performance 3-5 Assembly 2:30-3:00 tomorrow. Be sure to review the expectations. As a reminder Emily is out tomorrow.
